Depending on the baby's position in the womb, it can be more difficult to see if it is a boy or girl when the pregnancy is advanced - not much space to change positions!
I didn't want to know the sex of my baby, I feel it's nature's biggest surprise - none other like it. I had boy and girl names and no clothes in pink or blue - lots of other colours to c ...[text shortened]... ake sure he doesn't grow up to be a grumpy old man like some of the guys on this thread 🙂

in any place in the world its usually deducted before tax so the men do miss out big time.... but the women dont!!!!

i was one of these for a couple of years but mind you in all most parents lives we all work as i do now and pay taxes too that go to things such as people who are not working....
here in australia even fathers who look after their kids full time or part time with out a job; taxes go to that too..

yes i do have three and wish to encompass more children into my life through sponsoring, forstering and adopting... but personally i would not expect anyone to pay anymore for the life i have lived...
i am working and hope to contiune to work and provide for my own now and for in the future...
i want my kids to see me get up every day go to work and know that they must do the same.... i try to lead by example... that is the biggest thing in my life.. if my kids see me being a good person they will want to grow to be the same if not that is their choice but they have seen it so it should have some effect on them later in life...

being a parent and an only parent is a very hard job... well so my parents keep telling me..
some people cant handle the pressures of working and maintaing kids at the same time.. its a very hard thing to do...
i admire anyone who can and people like bub who has been a total inspriation to me.....
and people who are able to maintain the home front like mokko are another...

Originally posted by MissShellAbsolutely. But then maybe they should take the consequences and stop getting kids from random men they have just met. Actually that sounds like a good policy to me even if they are able to handle the pressures of working and maintaining kids at the same time.

Even here in Australia the government is paying $4000 to have kids ,Now as a tax payer i dont think my money should be contributing in this .
